Bodyweight Narrow Stance Squat
The bodyweight squat with the feet close together, the hands clasped at the chest; the narrow stance asks for more ankle and knee bend.
How to do it
Setup
Feet close together, toes forward, hands clasped at the chest.
Steps
- Sit straight down, the knees moving forward over the toes.
- Keep the heels flat and the chest up.
- Stand tall again, heels flat.
Common mistakes
Heels coming up at depth: go only as deep as they stay down. Rounding forward to balance: hands at the chest, chest tall. Knees pressing into each other: keep a gap between them.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
